Generate Unique Values From AutoFilter Result

Sep 2, 2006

I'm trying to use Advanced Filter to generate all the unique values within a list, only at times I want to Autofilter the data, then use the advanced filter to determine all the values of the slimmed list. For some reason, this works fine on column A, only returning the values that begin with a 1 when the column is filtered for all values beginning with 1. However, when I run the advanced filter on column 2 with column 1 filtered to all beginning with 1, all values all returned regardless of whether column 1 criteria is met. Either way, after the advanced filter, the autofilter has been removed.

When I drag my VLOOKUP formula down a column in Excel 2010, the return value copies the formula result from the original VLOOKUP formula result. For example, if the first VLOOKUP returns a value of 0.5, I expect to see 0.5 or 1 in the cell below that one. However, I get 0.5 which is not the expected result for the cell below.

When, I click the fx on the cells below, the expected return values appear in the formula result. After I click OK, the expected formula results updates and now appears in the cell.

I'm not sure what is causing this issue. My computer was updated recently from an old machine to a new one. I have never experienced this issue before.

I have values in COlumn A, probably about 50K rows, The total unique values on the column A is only about 27. I need to capture all those unique values and paste them in column B. I didn't want to do "Advance filtering" since the workbook has many macros's on it that the user simply click on. Im thingking of creating a loop and compare values already pasted in Column b but then that will take too much time to complete the loop. Is there any easier or yet more efficient way to accomplish this?.

I have 3 sets of table in a sheet, namely, BK,DC & BDM. Each of the table to shows the result (extracted from other sheets) for 12months and the rating that correspondence with the result. There is also 2 combobox and a commandbutton at the bottom of the sheet. The combobox1 is to select the item (BK,DC or BDM) and combobox2 is to select the month. This is because i need to create something whereby, once the item and month is selected, then the user is able to click on the commandbutton and a small window will appear to indicate the year to date result (extracted from the tables)

For example, if the user select BK in combobox1 and April in combobox2, then when they click on the commandbutton, the following happens: -

1. Calculate the average percentage of the performance from Jan - Apr (I'm using the Excel formula for step 1 & 2)2. Generate Rating 3. Populate the result in a small pop-up window which has the header as per what is selected in combobox1.

on generating a unique ID for each row in a spreadsheet. My current manually entered ID numbers are alpha numeric, so I want to use a formula or macro to follow the same format.

For example the IDs may be ABC001, ABC002, AAA001, AAA002, AAA003. So user enters info in a form built in excel, and I run a macro which takes the data entered into that form and populates another spreadsheet and I assign an ID number.

The ID number should look for the next number in the sequence, based upon the first three characters.

I don't want to create a function to use within a cell, I need the Sub to run through a user form. I have a Userform to create a new account, and need to add a 6 digit unique identifier after a predetermined prefix ("T" for toddler, "Y" for youth, and "A" for adult). The constraints are that it cannot be duplicated (this is for multiple children registered within the company). I have tried using the GUID but having difficulty stripping characters and adding the prefix (this was my fix inclination).

I have a list of e-mail addresses stored in an Excel file (column A). I need to generate some passwords basing on these e-mail addresses which would then be automatically stored in the same row as the passwords, only this time in column B. The passwords could be numbers based on some text to number conversion (which I could additionally add some mathematical operation to, to make the password harder to crack). The passwods would then be distributed among the owners of these e-mail addresses.

I want to generate numbers (1 to 15) in cells A1 through O1, but thenumber in each cells should be unique compare to the other cells, howcan I do it? If I use =randbetween(1,15), I can not get unique numberin each cell, some numbers are duplicated.

I have an excel sheet with over 50thousand entries, each entry is identified by an ID code in the L column. I want a code that creates a new workbook with all entries having thesame ID code. if it's not too much, i want to have a pop-up window that asks me to enter the ID code.

In an earlier life I was tasked with finding a "random" method of selecting two numbers from a "1 to 20" range so that the generated numbers can be applied to an set of people who will be partnered in a golf game draw.

It is only one draw per year so I don't care if the players have previously played together in past years.

easily be modified by a "passable knowledge level" person to be able to select a mystery "9" out of 18 holes that count for scores that particular round.

(btw: this is an issue only for the 20 guys who go away once a year to play golf, the world will not collapse if I have to draw numbers out of a hat, just looking for a slightly more elegant solution and I already have a few scoring macros so my first guess (but not only possibility) is VBA)

At the top of my 'new service" page, I need a button, which I then need to have a macro run on.

Sheet 1 is basically where I'd be entering the info, and sheet 2 where it would be stored. The button at the top is called Generate New "service' Number. This then needs to generate a new number on sheet 2 in A2 (then once 2 is populated, generate new in 3, then 4, then 5 etc...

I have a macro on Save Service Button at the bottom, which transposes the data into what would be used as a database to store all the services. That Macro then also needs to only transpose and paste data into the row corresponding with the "service number".

oRange.AdvancedFilter xlFilterCopy, , Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("B1"), TrueUnder certain conditions, I get one duplicated value on "Sheet2". As near as I can tell so far it is only when the first cell in my "oRange" variable has a duplicate(s) of itself elsewhere in the list. The said value then appears twice in the list (only twice out of 19 instances in my particular test).

Also, I noticed that it is automatically naming the first cell in my destination range "Extract". If I change "B1" (above) to something else and run it again it throws an error because of the duplicated name "Extract".

What am I missing? What is the purpose of the automatic naming?

It looks like I need more to guarantee that my filtered list is always 100% unique.

I have a sheet with a few hundred rows of data which I filter out by using a very simple autofilter. I have set page breaks throughout the whole sheet on certain rows I need to start on a new page. If the auto filter filters out any of these rows when it prints it prints a blank page where that row would have been before it was hidden by the autofilter.

For example the whole list is say 5 pages (set with page breaks) I apply an auto filter that now reduces it down to 2 pages say the 1st and last page of the original list. If I page break preview it, it shows me that it will be 2 pages but when i print preview/print the sheet it prints the 1st page then 3 blank pages then page 5 even know that the page break preview only shows and numbers 2 pages. Because the original page breaks are still there just are hidden by the autofilter so it adds them in as blank pages

I have a Excel sheet and I have put Autofilter for a particular category I choose I need to count number of items in another column(autofilter) , for eg... there are two columns Category , Items When i choose a particular Category I need to count number of Items in the autofilter for that particular category?

I've read a lot of tutorials on how to use pivot tables, but found them either too basic, or too advanced, and never finding any example of what I am looking to do.

I have a database, column A holds names, and column B their phone numbers. I'd like to generate a list of unique names and their associated telephone numbers. I figure I can use a pivot table to do this.

But I do not quite understand how to format the pivot table to put the name in one column and the phone number in the next. I will use this pivot table as a vlookup range. I assume I can do this.

I'm trying to put together a year-over-year retention report, with amount spent by new customers and also by returning customers. I have 2014 data, and 2013 data. Data for each year is a list of orders, consisting of a company number along with the amount spent.

What it basically boils down to is a count of different companies that have placed orders in 2014, along with the same for 2013, and then of the different companies who have orders in 2014, how many also have orders on the books for 2013 and how many are new.

And as a next step, how much have the retained companies spent, and how much have the new companies spent.

As an added wrinkle, the company field can also include blanks.

I've included an example below of the data I'm working with, along with the result I'm looking to recreate with formulas.

I have a user form into which data can be entered and is populated on the next sheet. The order ID is unique, is there way I can make the Order ID auto generated each time a record is entered instead of manually keying the number?
